Bill Summary
A bill to amend 1961 PA 236, entitled"Revised judicature act of 1961,"by amending sections 810a, 8151, and 8176 (MCL 600.810a, 600.8151, and 600.8176), section 810a as amended by 2011 PA 300, section 8151 as amended by 2012 PA 33, and section 8176 as amended by 2022 PA 7.
AI Summary
This bill, amending the Revised Judicature Act of 1961, establishes a new judicial district in Antrim County, Michigan, designated as the eighty-sixth-A district. Under this bill, the Antrim County probate judge will also serve as the judge for this new district, gaining the jurisdiction, powers, and duties of a district judge in addition to their probate judge responsibilities. This change also reconfigures the existing eighty-sixth district into the eighty-sixth-B district, which will now consist of Grand Traverse and Leelanau counties and will have two judges, with the current judges continuing their service. Importantly, the creation of these new districts, the eighty-sixth-A and eighty-sixth-B, will not require the approval of local government bodies, known as district control units, as is typically required for the establishment of new judicial districts.
